Interviewing to move from tax senior 3 to M&A senior role - when do I bring up where I fit in in terms of rank? Do I bring it up during screening calls or during interviews?

They definitely aren’t going to say you’ll be up for manager the next review cycle.

Yeah - that seems incredibly unlikely and honestly doomed to fail. Can’t possibly learn enough in 6 months to be ready.

I’ve seen a number of BTS/ compliance /whatever group transfer in. Never heard of anything like that.

M&A often promotes in two years at senior of the person proves themselves.

I’d look for that (I.e. the rest of this fiscal plus another at senior).

Hi, I was curious if anyone had any jobs or companies that had a position with a mix of consulting/healthcare/pharmaceutical. I currently work in clinical operations and research, and would love to jump or learn into a tech side company with pharmaceutical exposure. Not sure if these are out there but figured I’d see!

Morning all. I am looking for a favour/solid advice. I've been in the interview process for a dream role over the past month or so and just found out I didn't get the job after final round 🙃.

Unfortunately this isn't the first time this has happened during the past year searching. Looking for a SC level role within healthcare/public sector consulting firm. I know the job scene is a bit miserable currently but if anyone in the bowl is aware of a role I would love to have a chat.

Thanks all

Friendly tip from a former recruiter & HR PM.

Under no circumstances disclose how much you make or what you want to make.

Tell the recruiter,” I need to interview to learn more about the specific details of this opportunity before I’ll know how much I need to accept a potential offer…”

I discuss & other do’s and dont’s on IG.
